Hi, The loop I wrote executes correctly but is stalled seriously. Is there a way to hasten execution without coming up with a brand new algorithm ? please help. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/stalled-loop-tf4451301.html#a12699524 Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
You will have to supply a lot more information than you have. Is it a memory problem (are you paging), is it a function of your data structure, is it your algorithm, etc. Please follow the guidelines: "provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code."

Hey everyone, The code I wrote executes correctly but is stalled seriously. Is there a way to hasten execution without coming up with a brand new algorithm ?please help. Thanks a lot for your time. #a simplified version of the code a<-c("superman" , "xman" , "spiderman" ,"wolfman" ,"mansuper","manspider" ) b<-sapply(a,function(.srt){paste(sort(strsplit(.srt,'')[[1]]), collapse="")}) c<-NA for(i in 1:length(b)) { if(length(which(b==b[i]))>1) c[i]<-b[i] } c<-c[!is.na(c)] # But if my get the volumne of "a" up to about 150000 words , the loop will work incredibly slowly. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/stalled-loop-tf4456879.html#a12708590 Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
